PS: Holy crap! For the first time in my 40+ year career I have clicked-thru from a semi-relevant article about Rust on a micro p̵r̵o̵c̵e̵s̵s̵o̵r̵ controller to a reference about the...[RCA] COSMAC VIP (in the form of this dude's effort to get CHIP-8 running on LLVM-MOS). Do you have any idea how many lawns I had to mow to buy one of those? It was a big disappointment (over my ELF and SuperELF) too! ROFL

Together with https://github.com/nrf-rs/nrf-hal these enable most everything one can do on these controllers form pure Rust (the softdevice is a blob with a C-SDK that's wrapped in rust though)
